WTF?
Coming back to the US you can also show proof of COVID recovery in the past 90 days. I think it requires proof of a positive test AND a letter from a Dr stating you were cleared to travel...
Especially restaurants that can't just do what places like Snow's or Franklin's where they only serve until they're sold out - and they have to serve until some arbitrary time that they've chosen to close the restaurant...
Rudy's smoked turkey is pretty tasty. My son in law is a GM at Rudy's and several Thanksgivings he's brought the turkey from there and it hit the spot.
And I agree with the comment on their sauce. It's really good.
I've been numerous times over the past year...never had a wait. Sometimes had a bit of an issue finding an open seat, but that's because I want to use my laptop, so I kind of want a table.

I've done this a number of times. Got a CHEAP vacation and just have to waste 1.5 hrs listening to the pitch. I know how to say no - I've got 9 kids.
Just call them - they'll almost always give you a list of all the different vacations you could get if you sign up. My last one was 3days/2nights in NYC in a Hilton Club off of 53rd St (IIRC) for $199. After listening to the pitch, they gave me a $50 Visa gift card and a free 4day/3night vacation to FL on one of the coastal islands.
Which reminds me...I've got to use that this year.
